Klezmer Company Orchestra (KCO) Aaron Kula, director and Kitty Oliver, author, oral historian and vocalist, join forces to explore the common cultural experiences shared by the African-American and Jewish-American people. Kula, Oliver and KCO will offer a unique retrospective view of both cultures through music from FAU Libraries’ Print Music Collections, and story-telling focusing on faith, persecution, freedom, family and love.

The Jewish Cultural Society (JCS), a volunteer support organization whose mission is to advance Jewish cultural traditions and education at FAU Libraries through philanthropic endeavors and programs, is sponsoring this program.
